SCOTUS: Whoa there, that is, uh, a major question. Which means you can't do it.
*Trump revokes part of the constitution*
SCOTUS: Obviously, we got to give the President the benefit of the doubt on this one.

one of the projects of the court is to expand the ability of states to pursue reactionary ends and constrain the ability of the federal government to set minimum standards *or* of democratic-led states to expand upon existing rights

when women can choose, they choose to have significantly fewer kids whether they're in Norway or Japan, and I'm not certain there's anything that counters that, no matter how generous the state is. Many women don't want to be mothers, and that's their right and should come first.
this is about America but it has also been notable that a) the Chinese government have been trying really hard to raise the birth rate for the last few years, b) this has been accompanied by increasingly heavy handed patriarchy and anti-feminism, c) the project has completely failed.
Pronatalism is an authoritarian misogynist project.

Democrats' openness to supporting the Laken Riley Act comes as the party is recalibrating on immigration, after getting pummeled on the issue in recent years. Exit polls show it helped Trump beat Harris in 2024.
